I thought I wanted to open my psychic gifts. So I did. I set intent. Hours and years of intent. I found my spirit guides. Then I took classes. I studied. Tarot. Shamanism. Psychic awakening. Energy healing. What happened was surprising to me: my life got worse. Way worse. I was seeing things everywhere. I was walking into rooms and feeling icky energy. I would see someone walk by in the grocery store and I would notice challenged energy around them.
It took me years and struggle to realize the hard truth: I was co-dependent. And I was still co-dependent. Before I opened my psychic gifts more fully I was the empathic kid wandering around trying to make sure everyone was OK. Are you OK? Are you sure? I was taking on everyone else's bad moods, trying to make them better. I worried. I stressed. Opening up to spirituality did not change that pattern, it simply added more layers of awareness. Now I could not only empathically feel other people's feelings, I could now "see" and "hear" and "know" more now too. And I fretted even more because it seemed their very energy was at stake! Are you OK? Are you sure? I exchanged regular anxiety for existential anxiety. Was I supposed to walk up to friends and strangers and out myself as a psychic and give them.... info? Energy? A profound life-changing message? (Was the message even profound?) What if they thought that was nuts? What if that is nuts! But what if I was supposed to? After all, I had the psychic info now... Around and around I went. Until I got off the co-dependency merry-go-round. As soon as I figured our regular boundaries for regular life, my psychic gifts transformed too. If you are struggling like I was, the answer isn't taking a breath and telling everyone about your psychic info like it's a spiritual test. The solution is to lean into yourself more to learn boundaries, personal responsibility, and art of interdependent relationships. Then your psychic gifts truly feel like a blessing. All the great divine timing and knowing (and manifesting great parking spaces!) and none of the drama. Or at least, mostly no drama. We are human, after all. Comments are closed.
